Burglary suspect confronted by Colorado police while on the toilet: ‘I’m on the s–tter, bud’

This alleged burglar went from the crapper to the clink.

A Colorado police department released yuck-worthy footage of officers confronting a suspect while he was on the toilet after authorities received reports of a burglary in progress early Thursday morning.

Officers with Lakewood police descended on the property around 4 a.m. after an early morning alarm sounded and used a drone to help track a suspect down, according to a Facebook post from the department.

The bodycam footage shows a heavily armed police officer bust open an interior door to reveal the male suspect sitting on the toilet.

“I’m on the s–tter, bud,” the suspect said calmly as he put his hands up.

The man then stands up – with his hands still up and pants still down – as he follows cops’ orders to surrender, the wild video shows.

“While we see a lot of things in the line of doody, we had no clue what awaited us this time!” the department wrote in the cheeky post.

The alleged perp was taken to jail where he was charged with second-degree burglary, police said.

“You know the ol’ adage ‘caught with your pants down?’ Somebody should’ve told this burglary suspect who was arrested by Lakewood Police Agents early this morning,” the department stated.

More information about the case was not immediately available.
